<h4><a name = "tag_001_009_677">&nbsp;</a>NAME</h4><blockquote>
nl, nonl - enable/disable newline translation
</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_009_678">&nbsp;</a>SYNOPSIS</h4><blockquote>
<pre><code>

#include &lt;<a href="curses.h.html">curses.h</a>&gt;

int nl(void);

int nonl(void);
</code>
</pre>
</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_009_679">&nbsp;</a>DESCRIPTION</h4><blockquote>
The
<i>nl()</i>
function enables a mode in which carriage return is translated to newline on
input.  The
<i>nonl()</i>
function disables the above translation.
Initially, the above translation is enabled.
</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_009_680">&nbsp;</a>RETURN VALUE</h4><blockquote>
Upon successful completion, these functions return OK.  Otherwise, they return
ERR.
</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_009_681">&nbsp;</a>ERRORS</h4><blockquote>
No errors are defined.
</blockquote><h4><a name = "tag_001_009_682">&nbsp;</a>APPLICATION USAGE</h4><blockquote>
The default translation adapts the terminal to environments in which newline
is the line termination character.  However, by disabling the translation with
<i>nonl()</i>,
the application can sense the pressing of the carriage return key.
